What is a Micromodule Data Center

The modular data center (integrated modular product) consists of cabinets, power distribution cabinets, UPS, precision air conditioners, dynamic environment monitoring systems, cold channels, battery cabinets, etc. These products form a closed space. Each product can be regarded as a module, which is like building blocks to form a modular data center. You can add products according to your own needs. 2018-10-04 01:10:12

 Modular data center

The modular data center (integrated modular product) consists of cabinets, power distribution cabinets, UPS, precision air conditioners, dynamic environment monitoring systems, cold channels, battery cabinets, etc. These products form a closed space. Each product can be regarded as a module, which is like building blocks to form a modular data center. You can add products according to your own needs.

In fact, the modular data center integrates all the functions of the computer room into a modular integrated product. This integrated product can be seen as a computer room. The product can be used when it is placed in a room, and the room does not need to be decorated too much.

Why is modular computer room so popular now? It has the following six advantages:

1. High reliability standard module

Modular data center adopts modular, standardized and highly reliable design, which makes the whole system highly stable. It can provide N+1, N+X, 2N and other design schemes in the configuration of power supply and refrigeration core equipment according to customer needs and actual conditions, which are safe and reliable and meet the standards of Tier3 to Tier4.

2. Rapid deployment and greatly shorten the construction period

The micro module data center has improved the planning and design efficiency, and can reasonably configure the system architecture according to the IT business needs, such as the cabinet arrangement of module units, the selected power supply and distribution equipment, refrigeration scheme, monitoring system, etc; Mass production of micro modules improves the delivery speed. Standardized components reduce the on-site assembly workload and speed up the installation; The micro module can be assembled and pre tested in the factory, which ensures the debugging speed and reliability of the system; With modular design and integrated delivery of infrastructure and IT equipment, the deployment cycle of the data center can be shortened to several weeks. For the container data center, the overall joint commissioning can even be realized in the factory, and it can be directly transported to the site. After the water, electricity and network access are completed, it can be directly put into operation.

3. Realize phased construction and easy expansion

The modular data center integrates modular components such as end cooling, end power distribution, and end cabling. On the basis of reducing initial investment, it realizes on-demand deployment of the data center, avoids idle waste of fixed assets, and ensures the optimal infrastructure configuration of any IT space in the large data center.

4. Green energy conservation

At present, the power utilization cost of the data center accounts for the largest proportion of TCO during the life cycle. The modular data center realizes the on-demand power supply and cooling of IT equipment, making the capacity of the power supply and cooling system more match the load demand, thus improving the work efficiency and reducing the over configuration. The power conversion rate of the micro module is up to 95%. Because of the standardized interface and micro module architecture, it can greatly save power and achieve system energy conservation.

The modularized data center adopts closed isolation of cold channel, and the cold and hot airflow do not interfere with each other. The heat island effect caused by airflow crosstalk is avoided, which avoids the loss of air volume and cooling capacity. At the same time, the row air conditioner is used, and the near heat source design of the refrigeration equipment is used to improve the refrigeration efficiency, solve the problem of local hot spots, and reduce the operating cost of the data center. Combined with water cooling system and natural cooling system, the PUE of the micro module data center can be reduced to less than 1.5.

5. Intelligent management, fine operation and maintenance

The modular data center uses the real-time monitoring of the internal environment and power equipment of the micro module, as well as the collaborative work of IT equipment and infrastructure, to achieve the fine operation and maintenance of dynamic environment+IT equipment. The intelligent management system can provide visual experience, help customers achieve multi-level and refined energy consumption management in the data center, and accurately locate additional energy loss points through multiple reports to achieve energy conservation and consumption reduction. Based on big data analysis, output energy-saving optimization scheme and build a green data center. Asset management realizes closed-loop management of asset information within its life cycle to ensure timely data refresh and maintenance. At the same time, it helps users formulate asset maintenance plans, realize active alerts, dynamically adjust maintenance plans, output optimization schemes according to the current situation, and build the best asset management functions.

6. Easy to relocate the container data center

Container data center solution integrates power distribution system, power environment monitoring, refrigeration system, cabinet, cabling, fire protection and other infrastructure. As a new data center solution, it not only meets the needs of traditional data centers for computer room infrastructure, but also has the outdoor placement characteristics that traditional data centers do not have, as well as the relocation characteristics of computer rooms.

According to the advantages of the modular data center, it can be widely used in the following scenarios and environments.

Target Business Scenario

Small data center built by government, enterprises and institutions

Medium and large data centers providing private cloud services

Large data centers of Internet and operators providing public cloud services

Meet the customization needs of Internet, communication, government, military, education, electricity, petroleum and other enterprises

Applicable environment

Local space of office building meeting load bearing requirements

Old factory buildings with simple transformation

Using and creating a private data center

The working environment temperature of CDC is - 40~55 ℃, meeting the climate environment of low and high temperature countries, covering global application scenarios

The domestic modular data center market is in an era of rapid growth. Modularization has become a recognized trend in the data center industry. The heavyweight manufacturers have successively released comprehensive data center solutions based on modularity, and invested a lot of R&D efforts to apply intelligent technology to it, so as to promote the data center to develop in the dimensions of simplicity, efficiency, reliability, energy conservation and intelligence, so as to meet the requirements of data center centralization The demand of large-scale, high-density and complex trends.
